Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION <Industrial Application Field> The present invention relates to a handle device in which an in-vehicle audio device can be inserted into and removed from an inner case provided on a dashboard.

<Prior Art> In order to protect the on-vehicle audio equipment from theft, a handle device is provided on the audio equipment so that the audio equipment body can be easily removed from the inner case provided on the dashboard when leaving the car. ing.

This handle device is provided with a substantially-shaped handle composed of a pair of arms and a handle on the front operation portion of the audio equipment, the side arm of the equipment body is supported by the arm, and the operation of raising and lowering the handle causes the acoustic equipment to be an inner case. It can be inserted and removed freely. Then, the handle is housed around the operation portion when it is inserted.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> However, in the above-described conventional handle device, the handle protrudes from the storage position to the front of the operation unit due to vibrations during traveling of the vehicle, and interferes with the operation of the audio device. There was a problem of spoiling the aesthetics.

<Means for Solving the Problems> The present invention relates to a handle device for an in-vehicle audio device, which has been devised to solve the above-mentioned problems, and includes a pair of arms axially supported on the side of the device body and a continuation of the arms. A handle that is rotatable around a storage position that is stored around the operating portion of the device body and a standing position that is raised from the operating portion, and a step portion on the outer edge. A locking plate attached to at least one of the arms and a push-up spring for urging the handle at the storage position in the upright direction are provided, and the tip end of the locking plate is rotated by the turning operation of the handle. It is detachable from the inner case of, and the device body can be inserted into and removed from the inner case.
A lock release lever projecting to the front side of the operation portion and a locking portion that can be engaged with the step portion of the locking plate are integrally formed on a side portion of the device body, and When the handle is stored in the storage position, a locking member that is movable in the contact and separation direction is attached, and a biasing member that biases the locking member toward the locking plate is provided. In addition, the step portion and the locking portion are engaged with each other so that the handle is locked.

<Operation> Therefore, the handle is locked by the arm locking member in the housed state, and the housed handle is pushed forward by the arm push-up spring by operating the lock release lever.

<Embodiment> An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view showing a handle device 1 provided in an audio device such as a vehicle-mounted cassette tape player or a CD player, and FIG. 2 is a schematic side cutaway view of the same portion.

As shown in the figure, the operation unit 21 provided on the front surface of the device body 2
The handle 3 is provided with a substantially-shaped handle 3 including a pair of arms 31 and a handle 32 connected thereto. The handle 3 is rotatable between a storage position in which it is stored around the operation unit of the device body and a standing position in which it is raised from the operation unit 21. That is, the tips of the arms 31, 31 are attached to the arm mounting plates 4, 4 attached to the side portions 22, 22 of the device body 2 by the support shafts P,
It is supported by P. Further, semi-arc shaped locking plates 33, 33 having sharpened tips 33a, 33a are attached to the arms 31, 31. A step portion 34 having a forward contact surface 34a is formed on the outer edge 33b of the locking plate 33 on the same side as the arm locking member 5 described later.

Further, an arm locking member 5 made of a substantially plate material is provided below one of the arm mounting plates 4. The arm locking member 5 moves up and down by engaging the vertically long notches 51, 51 formed on the upper edge 5a and the lower edge 5b with the pins L, L standing on the arm mounting plate 4. It is freely attached to the arm mounting plate 4. Moreover, one end of the coil spring 6 is attached to the arm engaging member 5 and the other end is attached to the arm attaching plate 4, so that the arm engaging member 5 is urged upward. Further, on the upper edge 5a of the arm locking member 5, a locking portion 52 having a rearward contact surface 52a is formed by projecting the central portion thereof upward. At the tip of the arm locking member 5, a lock release lever 53 protruding forward of the operating portion 21 is provided.
Are formed.

Further, one of the arm mounting plates 4 is provided with a plate-shaped arm pushing spring 7 attached to the rear end surface 31a of the arm 31. The arm pushing spring 7 has an upper end portion.
71 is fixed near the tip of the arm 31, and the lower end 72 is the arm.
The rear side end surface 31a of 31 is pressed. That is, the arm push-up spring 7 allows the handle 3 stored as described later.
Is urged forward.

With the above configuration, the device body 2 is inserted into the inner case 8 provided on the dashboard as shown in FIG. 1 and inserted in a predetermined position, and the handle 3 is lowered as shown in FIG.
When housed in a state of being integrated with the face plate F provided around the periphery 21, the tips 33a, 33a of the locking plates 33, 33 are fitted into the locking holes 82, 82 in the upper surface 81 of the inner case 8 and the device The body 2 cannot be removed from the inner case 8. In such a state, since the arm locking member 5 is biased upward,
The stepped portion 34 of the locking plate 33 is automatically engaged with the locking portion 52 of the arm locking member 5 so that the front contact surface 34a and the rear contact surface 52a are in contact with each other. As a result, the handle 3 is locked in the storage state as described above, that is, in the storage state around the operation portion 21.

Further, when the lock release lever 53 protruding forward of the operation portion 21 is pushed down, the engagement between the engagement portion 52 of the arm engagement member 5 and the stepped portion 34 of the engagement plate 33 is released, and the lock is released. It at the same time,
Since the arm 31 is biased forward by the arm push-up spring 7, the handle 3 is pushed forward of the operating portion 21 as shown by the chain double-dashed line in FIG. When the handle 3 is pulled up toward the front, the tips 33a, 33a of the engaging plates 33, 33 come out of the locking holes 82, 82 of the inner case 8, and if the handle 3 is pulled as it is, the device body 2 is removed from the inner case 8. Can be taken out.

<Effects of the Invention> As described above, according to the handle device of the present invention, since the handle can be locked while being housed around the operation portion, when the audio device is inserted into the inner case, the vehicle travels. This solves the problem that the handle protrudes from the storage position to the front of the operating unit due to vibrations and the like, which disturbs the operation of the audio device and impairs the aesthetic appearance of the audio device.

Furthermore, when the audio device is removed from the inner case, the lock can be easily released with one touch to push the handle forward of the operation unit.
